Abstract

We introduce a general algebraic setting for describing linear boundary problems in a symbolic computation context, with emphasis on the case of partial differential equations. The general setting is then applied to the Cauchy problem for completely reducible partial differential equations with constant coefficients. While we concentrate on the theoretical features in this paper, the underlying operator ring is implemented and provides a sufficient basis for all methods presented here.
